Hi Cara,

Oh, that's an understatement. I once remember this college physics
professor of mine who wrote an electronic practice test written in
batch scripting which was simply awful. It got the job done, but
anyone who knew a programming language like Basic could have done
better without trying. A language like C++ would have been even better
yet. However, the moral of the story was that professor didn't know
how to program, knew a little bit of batch scripting, constructed his
practice test in that, and the end result was terrible. It never
really worked the way the professor intended it to, and it frequently
crashed. Even worse he designed it to run on this specific machine in
the lab, which didn't have a screen reader on it, and it was a pain in
the backside porting it to the adaptive lab so I could use Jaws for
Dos to access the practice test. Ugh!

Cheers!
